LOSS OF THE OCEAN KING.
Rescue of the Crew Off Sable island.

The fishing schooner c. b. Manning which
arrived at this port. yesterday morning
brought the crew of the schooner Ocean
Island February 9th. The crew give the
following story of the loss of their vessel,
which sailed January 18th from Gloucester
on a fishing trip to the Banks
"We left Gloucester" said one of the men,
sin a vessel that was supposed to be all
right We had quick passage to the banks
and on the night of the 22d were off ST.
Peters banks and anchored there in 80
fathoms of water the wind being northwest
and breezing up all the time. About II
O'Clock the schooner began to drag and we
gave her all the cable we had. The sea was
running high and schooner pitching fearful
~ We shipped two tremendous seas about
that time one of which stoyetwo Of our boats
OF us rushed to save the captain and we were
all In the water together but we dragged
him back all right. The next sea disabled
our rudder twisting it 10 the rudder casing
and soon after it became unshipped and
fioated off. We were then adrift and at the
mercy OF the wind and water" For nearly
two weeks the Inflated vessel was driven
hither and thither across the water the
crew exhausting every resource and device
to rig rudder to the craft, but every effort
proved unavailing and finally on the after
noon OF the 9th of February they sighted the
Nova Scotia coast and were driving ON to-
ward Sable Island. at this juncture the c.

ZONE along side. Great difficulty was ex-
perienced in transferring the crew of the
Ocean King to the Manning. The sea was
too rough for them to save much from the
abandoned vessel and after first setting fire
to her they left her to her fate When they
last saw her she had burned to the waters
edge.
The Ocean King was a schooner of rs tons
burden owned in Gloucester and built at
Bath in 1877. She was insured for $1,000.
